Chapter 915 - 589: Sisters Weep with No Way Out, Suddenly Enter the Demon Child's Peach Blossom Spring

The Yin Yang Two Demon Children can perform the Round Light Technique, reflecting the scenes several miles away, yet they lack the ability to calculate and predict, unable to allow Tao Qian, their master, to understand the causes and effects.

Merely looking at the images, it was all still a fog of confusion.

Fortunately, at this moment, the "Little Divination Worm" that Tao Qian released earlier had just expanded to the main road of Earth Evil Ridge. The insect silk, unseen by anyone, infiltrated the bodies of each person on both sides of the confrontation in the blink of an eye.

Even those four who were escaping, and that young female general, were completely spied upon.

In an instant, Tao Qian comprehended everything:

"This territory, including the temporary residence registration of my mortal body, belongs to a country called 'Liang Country.'

"The king's surname is Li, he is an emperor skilled in eating, drinking, playing, and composing poetry but not in ruling a country."

"A few days ago, the grandmaster Zhao Cihang of this country rebelled, easily taking over the Imperial Palace, and executed Emperor Li... The current Empress and Imperial Concubine, who were originally sister flowers, fled the Imperial City with their children, under the protection of the head of the Imperial Guards, [Turtle Snake General Shi Zhongxiao], seeking refuge in Pei County in the south of Liang Country."

"It is both to seek protection and hoping that the general of Liang Country, who is currently stationed in Pei County, can assist the Crown Prince in restoring the country."

...

None of the experiences and insights of these people present could be compared to that of the previous Jusheng Village chief, Huang Yangsheng.

Through their memories, Tao Qian naturally instantly understood Liang Country and even a vast amount of information beyond Liang Country.

Roughly, some world background was also known.

"Inside the Search God Realm, there seems to be a vast number of shattered continents... This area underfoot is called [Ten Thousand Gods Continent], where many countries stand, and the turnover is extremely fast, with rebellion and usurpation being commonplace."

"Liang Country's territory is neither too big nor too small, with a medium status, located in the southern part of Ten Thousand Gods Continent."

"Its founder was called Li Feilian, with the Taoist name Heavenly Gang Spirit Officer, rumored to have an extraordinary destiny, having learned a set of God Demon Rites in his youth, capable of summoning the Outer Realm Demon [Spirit Plague Marshal], and later piecing together as many as thirty-six different sets of God Demon Rites, which if fully performed could summon thirty-six god demons to bestow their powers."

"Relying on this Extraordinary Power, Li Feilian expanded territories and established monumental achievements."

"Unfortunately, the descendants of the Li family became weaker with each generation, and being infatuated with riches and honor, the emperors capable of God Demon Spirit Cultivation became increasingly rare."

"Until the last three generations before the fall, there wasn't a single one, ultimately having to bestow the God Demon Rites to loyal subordinates to maintain rule, and Turtle Snake General Shi Zhongxiao was one of the beneficiaries."

"However, his actual strength was still inferior to the [Blood Locust Demon General], one of the ten demons under Zhao Cihang's command, because this demon was recognized by the Outer Realm Demon 'locust god' in his youth and was granted many secret techniques and God Demon treasures."

Tao Qian blinked, comprehending much in a moment.

On the pitch-black mountain road of Earth Evil Ridge, both sides were already in a frenzied fight.

When Shi Zhongxiao saw the Demon General, all kinds of blood debts surfaced in his mind, immediately driving Shi Zhongxiao into madness.

His whole body started emitting blood energy with a hiss, abruptly setting up a formation array, leading a multitude of soldiers to begin forming seals, chanting incantations, and shouting:

"Children, join me in chanting the 'True Martial Demon Cleansing Scripture' to call upon the [Turtle and Snake Gods] to bestow us with Divine Magic Power through Spiritual Response."

"This fiend follows the [locust god], which is nothing but an Acquired God Demon lacking Spiritual Wisdom, knowing only to devour, and its supernatural power is far inferior to that of the Turtle and Snake Gods."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Shi Zhongxiao spoke lightly, yet it was to stir the morale.

From the aura of both sides, one could discern the strength.

The Blood Locust Demon General on the opposite side had not yet made a move, but behind him were a full hundred thousand locust people, covering the sky and devouring everything.

This side, along with Shi Zhongxiao, had called forth merely two turtle and snake phantoms, creating much commotion but couldn't withstand the chewing of the locust mutants.

In an instant, the victory was decided.

The turtle and snake phantoms dissipated, the remnants were devoured utterly, and Shi Zhongxiao couldn't escape this fate, nearly being gnawed into a human stick, his face a pitiful sight, with no eyes left and gauged flesh at the nose.

Even so, this general was extremely steadfast, shouting loudly before his death:

"Blood locusts, you and your master with the wild ambitions should not get complacent."

"The Demon Cleansing General has mastered all thirty-six sets of Heavenly Gang Rites, once he knows what Zhao Cihang has done, he will surely seek retribution."

"You're just like grasshoppers after autumn, you can't hop for much longer, hahaha..."

The Blood Locust Demon General had remained silent, only now did he listen to Shi Zhongxiao's dying shout.

The pursuing body suddenly had its head turn, grinning to reveal a mouthful of red needle-blade teeth, and sneering words pierced through, sharp and harsh:

"A dedicated commander of the Forbidden Army, even thinking of bluffing this general to buy some time before death."

"Unfortunately, it was in vain."

"Even if I let your daughter lead them away for thirty miles first, so what? With a single Flying Locust Divine Escape Technique, this general can catch up easily."

"As for the Demon Cleansing General Li Chongyang, huh, clearly a Liu family member, shamelessly recognizing the old emperor as a wild father to obtain those thirty-six Heavenly Gang Rites... If he could gather the Rites and summon all thirty-six Heavenly Gang God Demons, he could indeed be a threat to the Grandmaster."

"But alas, he happens to lack the set of [Turtle and Snake Gods] that you cultivated."

"Heh heh, you think I don't know you secretly hid the ritual secret book on your daughter? You sent the body to protect the secret book, how could you succeed?"

As soon as the Blood Locust Demon General finished speaking, the expression of utter despair appeared on Shi Zhongxiao's face, all his thoughts having been uncovered.

He wanted to attempt something more, but unfortunately, his body was already drained and exhausted, and the few locust mutants that had been waiting for a long time around him rushed forward with malicious smiles, and with the rustling sound passing by, that territory was already empty, not even a bone or a drop of blood was left.
